    Sticky spaghetti...

    Other than adding oil to the cooking water, does anyone have any tricks on how to prevent spaghetti from sticking??? It's very annoying.

    nope that's what I use. Another method would be great since rice flour spaghetti has no oomph/ I think the oil weighed it down.

    Rice flour has no elasticity. Rice bread is very heavy,

    Add it to the boiling water slowly, and stir it several times while cooking to keep it separated - and add the oil to the water too.

    Yes, don't overcook. I don't use oil in the water because then the sauce does not stick to the pasta.
